THE CHRISTIAN'S PRIVILEGE.

'Where should the living, weeping o'er his woes;
The dying, trembing at the awful close;
Where the betray'd, forsaken, and oppress'd,
The thousands whom the world forbids to rest,
Where should they find, (those comforts at an end,
The Scripture yields) or hope to find a friend?

In the multitude of my thoughts within me, THY COMFORTS delight

my soul. Psalm xciv. 19.
